Product Description

'Guadalcanal March', by Richard Rogers, is an excerpt from the score of 'Victory at Sea', a 1952 television series which was based on naval battles during World War II. The volcanic island of Guadalcanal, in the South Pacific, was the scene of the first large-scale U.S. invasion of a Japanese-held island.

The music was originally published for piano in 1952 by Williamson Music, Inc. (co-owned by Rodgers) and was arranged for band by Eric Leidzén in 1955. Rodgers's score for Victory at Sea was the first instrumental score conceived for television; having won the U.S. Naval Distinguished Public Service Award and a 1953 Emmy Award, it is still considered one of the best. I made this arrangement for the SA Navy Bend in 2015.

Look and listen to the score.

My arrangements are "custom made" for any ensemble required and voiced specifically for their instrumentation. So, feel free to contact me should you require any music arranged for your ensemble. I voice it with the tonal colors of your instrumentation (keeping in mind the strong and weaker musicians) to bring the most out of your performance! The best part is, you get it right here from this music publisher for ease of mind!
